Jakarta \u2014 The National Food Agency (Bapanas) and the West Java Food\nTask Force moved swiftly to trace the chicken egg supply chain in\nBandung to curb price fluctuations that have begun to exceed the\nReference Sale Price (HAP) at the consumer level.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday we, together with the West Java Clean Sweep Task Force on\nPrice, Food Safety and Quality Violations, are tracing chicken eggs\nbecause market prices are beginning to exceed the HAP,\u201d said Bapanas\nDeputy for Food Availability and Stabilisation I Gusti Ketut Astawa in a\nstatement in Jakarta on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Astawa noted that the tracing was conducted after the West Java Task\nForce discovered chicken egg prices beginning to fluctuate due to\nslightly exceeding the HAP at the consumer level. \u201cThis was found\namongst traders at Kosambi Market in Bandung, West Java during\ninspections,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
According to the results of the West Java Task Force\u2019s tracing,\nchicken egg supplies originate from Caringin Central Market and chicken\negg distributors around Cikutra Market. The investigation revealed that\ndistributors encountered acknowledged having received prices from\nproducers that had begun to fluctuate over the past three days.<\/p>\n
Astawa said the tracing conducted with the Food Task Force yielded\npositive results. Producers and distributors committed to setting lower\nchicken egg prices through the upcoming Eid holiday. Producers supplying\nchicken eggs to Bandung originate from Blitar, East Java.<\/p>\n
\u201cProducer prices have been agreed to be reduced, so wholesale chicken\negg prices can reach approximately 27,500 rupiah per kilogramme. Thus\nretail prices can still be around 30,000 rupiah per kilogramme,\u201d Astawa\nexplained.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/national-food-agency-and-west-java-task-force-curb-egg-price-fluctuations-in-bandung-1773579109", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
